Crazy OlyVil Inauguration Coverage: LET’S JAM Edition

After the Invocation, where I left off last, Aretha Franklin was introduced and is singing My Country Tis of Thee. She’s got KIND OF a big church hat thing going on, and it’s totally adorable.

IT’S TIME, IT’S TIME. Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens is administering the oath of office for Joe Biden. YESSSS. His eyes are so tiny. I love him love him. YESSSSS. WE HAVE A NEW VICE PRESIDENT. Cheney is in a wheel chair and Joe Biden is HARDCOOOOORE.

I’m sorry, I’m nonsensical and totally excited, so.. yeah.

Now is a performance of a John Williams arrangement, with Itzhak Perlman, Yo-Yo Ma, Gabriela Montero and Anthony McGill. The performers look genuinely excited to be there, it’s incredible. Aw, that was really lovely. But the end of it could not come sooner because HOLY BUTTS, IT’S TIME FOR OBAMA TO TAKE HIS OATH.

Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. is administering the oath. OH WOW. Uhoh he spoke too soon. That was cute. AHAHAHA OH NO HE’S SO NERVOUS. I LOVE IT SO MUCH. OH MY GOD

OH MY GOD WE HAVE A NEW PRESIDENT OH MY GOD. I CANNOT CONTROL THE LEVEL OF CAPSLOCK IN HERE RIGHT NOW OH MY GOD. KLDJRNGLOEIHRITNJEHRFOGDCFLKDSAJKLF,MBRUITKG

Wowwww i just spazzed out a little bit there, didn’t I?

Obama has just started his speech, and excuse me while I die of happiness a little bit.

Today, we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and begin the work of remaking America.

Rev. Joseph E. Lowery just gave the Benediction, and seriously, that was the best thing ever. First off, dude is like 140 years old, so he totally has OLD MAN voice, which I LOVE, and secondly, he was GREAT.
